The Star Knight - 133. Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Three
Opal: [Why do so many people suddenly appear? Where did they all come from? 】
Pastor: [The news spread immediately after the teacher left. The aircraft carriers of the Republic, the Empire, and the pirates suddenly appeared… Just now I didn’t have time to tell you, the archbishops are waiting, they depend on whether they are loyal to me or loyal to Ledgerson… …Thank you, Opal. I was scared that I wouldn’t be able to wait for the uncle to come. 】
Opal: [You’re welcome, what about now? 】
Pastor: 【Crown first, then deal with them, depending on the situation. You will be on my side, right? 】
Opal: [At least it will be, but I can’t guarantee it forever. 】
Andis coughed and said, “Guests here, please go to the guest seat of the Hall of Canonization and prepare for the stellar coronation.”
The shepherd screamed, and the generals went to the seats and sat down. Opal always stood beside the shepherd to prevent Ledgerson from playing tricks during this period.
Caesar approached them and whispered: “Your Majesty.”
Opal knew that Raymond’s existence could not be hidden from Caesar, he must have noticed it, but could not tell whether it was Coralin himself.
Raymond said solemnly: “What’s the matter, Caesar?”
Caesar obviously had something to discuss with Raymond, Opal exchanged glances with Raymond, Raymond walked aside, pushed the door into the secret room in the canonization hall, and talked with him privately.
Opal waited beside the throne. After a while, Ames came out, found Justin, and talked to him for a few words. Justin was talking to Tifeng, quietly for a while, and then got up and walked towards Opal.
“Opa.” Justin said.
Opal frowned and said, “Long time no see, uncle.”
“Meet again.” Justin said, “Tiffany invites you to talk to him after the ceremony, okay?”
Opal said: “Of course, did you see my teacher?”
Justin said: “Yes, I admire Mr. Reckett very much… Now there is one thing, I think only you can help here.”
Opal raised his eyebrows and motioned for him to speak.
Justin said: “This is the case. When the pastor takes over as the pope, he needs someone to crown him. All the people who participate in the ceremony are not neutral, only you and Ledgerson.”
“I remember you are qualified as an adventurer in King’s Wharf.” Justin said: “The shepherd wanted me to crown him, but I absolutely can’t do that…”
Opal thought about it and knew that, whether it was a relationship with the Republic or a military position in the empire, Justin was not suitable to be crowned, nodded and said: “I understand, let me come. But in fact, my position is. Nor is it neutral…”
Justin whispered: “Thank you very much, Opal. What is the real position, but at least for now, no one knows your true identity, so you can treat yourself as an adventurer for the time being…”
Opal’s heart slammed, Justin said that, it means that he already knows Opal’s identity as a disciple of Cololin, that is to say, did you tell him about it? Then Tifeng might also know what happened at the source of floodlight that year, according to the information network of the Li Wei faction, some clues must have been investigated in the end.
Justin bowed slightly and returned to the guest seat.
The pastor went inside to change his clothes. When he came out, seven archbishops followed him. The pastor held a scepter, Ames held a sword, Andis held a book of stars, and the archbishops behind him held various magic weapons.
Opal took out his adventurer medal and put it on, holding the adventurer’s manual in his left hand.
The organ music played, the chants echoed in the hall, the pope’s golden crown was placed in front of the throne, the pastor led all the bishops to kneel on one knee and glanced aside, but Opal whispered: “Master Gleibini, the pope is away I was with him at the last time before going, so at this moment, I follow the instructions of the pope to crown you.”
The pastor looked a little helpless, but had to sigh.
As soon as Opal’s words came out, the guest soldiers whispered to each other, Rotman asked: “I haven’t asked for advice. What’s your status, boy?”
Opal showed Rotman the Adventurer’s Handbook and said: “I am a member of the King’s Wharf Aerospace Association, and the Pope issued a commission to accompany him through the last time.”
“Really,” the shepherd asked in a low voice.
“Fake.” Opal said in a low voice without expression.
Pastor: “…”
The two laughed together.
The sound of the organ ceased, and Andes said: “The 336th Pope, Tochen V. Gleibini ascended the throne, please be quiet, everyone.”
The voice of the shepherd echoed in the hall of canonization:
“Following the will of the stars, I will use my life’s dedication and the creator of life, the stars flowing for hundreds of millions of years in the river of light, at this moment, take over as the pope, please bless me, the true god, and the universe.”
Raymond and Caesar came out of the compartment and looked at the scene in front of them quietly.
The light arc stars shed golden powder-like light, and the stained glass refracted the splendid brilliance. The surroundings in the Hall of Consecration were darkened, and only the throne was shrouded in a layer of dazzling white light.
Opal and the shepherd were shrouded in that layer of light. Opal solemnly took over the crown, and the shepherd knelt on one knee and bowed his head.
“Very young.” Ti Feng whispered.
Justin nodded and said, “Gleibini is the youngest pope ever…”
The youngest star knight in history wears the crown on the head of the youngest pope.
“Okay.” Opal said.
At this moment, everyone has not yet understood what this scene of the canonization ceremony means. Two teenagers who are less than twenty years old-opal who inherited the star knight leader, and officially sit to dominate the entire Lion Autonomous Prefecture, Even the pope of the Holy See in the entire universe, like two roaring forces, pushed the huge vortex activated after Azeroth’s death again, and involved all the countries in the Star League into this catastrophe and rebirth. In the Star Wars.
Three months later, the China Aerospace Association:
“Lie Xing’s situation is getting worse and worse. The hostages have not been found.” Raymond returned with the information.
Opal lay at the table and looked casually, and said, “Is the teacher not back yet?”
“No.” Raymond said: “There is no contact information either. I am a little worried about him.”
Opal said: “With the teacher’s ability, there should be no danger.”
Reckett is not like Cororin, who has conspiracies and tricks brewing in his mind all the time, and Rekert does more of a trick. Compared to Colonel’s habit of proactively attacking and planning, Opal prefers to be late like Reckett.
“But the Dragon Ray is not by his side.” Raymond said.
Opal pondered for a moment, and said: “He also said that he doesn’t want to use the power of dragon rays anymore.”
Neither Raymond nor Opal spoke. Opal leaned on the back of the chair, tapped his fingers on the table, and was silent for each other.
This is the hundredth day after they returned to the Greater Astronautical Association. The empire entered the security period briefly after the White Falcon Star incident and the pastor took over as the Pope. However, under the seemingly calm appearance, it seemed that there was a bigger event. The conspiracy is brewing.
Opal discovered that Raymond had talked a lot less since his encounter with Kyle Ray.
He knocked on the side and asked more than once, but Raymond always avoided answering. In the end, there was no way, so he said to Opal: Let me think about it first.
Opal had no choice but to help him, no longer questioning or reading his heart, he had his own opinions, and of course Raymond could have them too.
“Then let’s take a look…” Opal said, “What have to be done recently.”
He cheered up and checked the information that Raymond brought back. The analysis of the Pope and Alex had been submitted to the Greater Aerospace Association, and Opal was therefore ranked as an official adventurer—the current rating for him is Club 4.
An Opal report mentioned that the empire is about to undergo a regime change. The power behind Alex is huge and far-reaching, and it is very likely that he will become the next emperor of the Lion Empire. The details have been discussed by Opal and Raymond, and the part about the Knights of the Stars is omitted, only the dispute between the Holy See, the Rotman family and the prince is retained.
The pirate kings Zoro and Kyle, who originally supported Baroque’s rule, completely fell to Ledgerson’s side. Through Jasmine’s connection, the pirates and Ledgerson, who represented some of the forces in the Holy See, became the largest family in the empire, Rotman. Alex has a tough backstage.
Baroque successfully defended the biggest backstage of the Holy See, and the support of Justin and the pastor meant that the prince would not be immediately eliminated as a loser. And Opal’s statement also proves the attitude of Kolorin.
Therefore, the Meteor Empire, the shepherd, the military system controlled by Justin, and Rekert, as well as the direct line of the Republic, became the supporters of Baroque.
It seems that even if the pirate king turns, the two sides will still be evenly matched, and they will have the strength to fight.
Finally clarified the relationship between the two parties. This report is extremely precious. Opal remembered the conversations between the various forces in the Kingdom of Light Arc after the coronation ceremony three months ago, and he remembered the words of Tifeng most clearly.
“How are you doing, Ivan?” Tifeng and Yan Yue said, “I haven’t seen you for many years, you’ve grown up.”
Opal smiled and said: “The book has not been returned to you yet.”
Tifeng said, “It doesn’t matter. The copy itself was copied from the Prophet’s library. How is your uncle’s business doing?”
Opal said: “Uh…It’s okay. He recently traveled between the stars and may want to do some other small business. I guess he won’t go to the Republic for the time being. How is General Li Wei’s life?”
Tifeng said: “He is still the same, recuperating on a small planet in my family. It is good to let him settle occasionally.”
Opal nodded, and the two asked and answered each question. They were clear. Tifeng did not expose the identity of Opal, but instead put the purpose of Colorin and Opal in the old-fashioned inquiry. Opal also used this content to Ingeniously speaking, at least for the time being, Kolorin has no action plan for the Republic, so don’t worry about it for the time being.
After the war with Iszul, the vitality of the Republic was greatly injured. At this moment, the multi-party relationship was the most sensitive time. A slight imbalance in the power structure of the empire would affect the entire Star Alliance. In this extraordinary period, Tifeng had to stand up, and within a few words, he felt a little unstable.
“Is your health better?” Opal said.
Tifeng nodded and said, “I have to find something to do. I welcome you to the source of floodlight when I have time. Karens also talked about you, and I hope you can come as a guest.”
…
“Opal?” Raymond said.
Opal recovered, sorted out the report details, and said: “Raymond.”
Raymond said: “Should we go to see the teacher? The last time he appeared was on Green Mercury…”
“Raymond, I’ll ask you a question.” Opal didn’t know why he mentioned this suddenly, and said: “Answer me, Raymond, tell me what you really think, otherwise I will read your heart.”
Raymond frowned slightly.
Several adventurers walked past them.
Opal’s voice was very small, he drew the sofa a little closer, held Raymond’s big hand, and was very close to him, saying: “Kelly is your kind, and he is also an intelligent life.”
Raymond: “…”
Opal: “You feel kind to Kyle Rey, don’t you?”
Raymond said immediately: “No, Opal, what you said, on the spacecraft, when we left Rembrandt, my body was destroyed. You said that I am also a human being. I think I am just like you… …”
Opal slowly shook his head, stared into Raymond’s eyes, and said: “You don’t think so, don’t lie to me, Raymond.”
Raymond was silent for a long time, then nodded and said: “Yes, Opal, when I saw Kyle Rey, I don’t know why, I think I have found the same kind. Before I met him, I always regarded myself as a human being. But when he asked…I…”
Opal had expected such an answer for a long time, and he moved forward a little bit and said, “Hi, Raymond.”
Music was playing in the distance, and when the King’s Wharf entered the evening, the magnificent fire cloud curled up the afterglow of the setting sun outside the window, gently spreading out in the evening breeze.
“It doesn’t matter whether it is human or not.” Opal said: “No matter what you are, I want you to promise me, at least between the two of us, there is no opposition and choice between camps.”
Raymond thought for a while and nodded: “I understand.”
Opal said: “If Kyle Rey asks you to return to the Clone Corps and lead the army for him, will you go back?”
Raymond laughed and said, “Of course not.”
Opal actually just talked about it. He always felt that Kyle Ray was not that simple. Maybe he was planning a bigger move secretly, and he said to Raymond, “You promised me.”
“I promise you.” Raymond said: “No matter if I finally feel that I am a human or a clone, my attitude towards you will never change.”
Opal nodded and said: “This is what I have always thought.”
Both Raymond and Opal were relieved. At this moment, a clerk came over and said: “Fourth-level adventurer Opal and fifth-level adventurer Raymond, please go to the king’s living room on the third floor. Several gentlemen would like to see you. .”
“Business is here.” Raymond said.
“Isn’t it almost time to get off work?” Opal glanced at the atomic clock, and logically he would be off work in less than five minutes, and who would meet on the third floor? It looks like a big customer.
The two walked up the stairs quickly. Many people were talking in the king’s living room. It was a conference room with a long circular table. When Raymond opened the door, the conversation stopped briefly. There were seven men inside. Two women.
“What to drink?” A middle-aged man in a suit and very tidy up got up to pour them wine. The cabinet was full of fine wines from various planets.
“Volcanic spirits.” Opal said, “Thank you.”
Raymond said: “It’s the same.”
“Sit whatever you want.” At the center of the long circular table, a man who looked like an important person was reading a document and gestured at them to please.
Opal was nervous and sat down side by side with Raymond. The middle-aged man put the wine in front of them, returned to his position, and said: “These two are the new adventurers we mentioned.”
Opal knew right away that the two of them had indeed been investigated. When they were investigating the rest of the commission, maybe the Association of Aerospace Industries had noticed this adventurer brigade.
“Introduce today’s participants.” The man at the ring table said: “Spades K Cana Ryubin, Hearts K Wilson Aurel, Hearts Q Van Cervantes…”
When Opal heard the honors of these adventurers in front of him, he felt that the matter must not be simple. Is it about the identity of Reckett, or the incident in the Kingdom of Light not long ago?
Just like contacting the high-level mercenaries on the scorching star, and now finally being involved in the central power circle of the Great Astronautical Association, Raymond drank a volcano spirit, his neck was flushed, and he nodded slightly.
“…Plum J Lille Andores, cube J Ares Rotman.”
Opal heard a familiar surname. Cube J was a very young man. He raised a glass and smiled at him, saying: “It’s just a distant relative. There are so many members of the Rotman family, so many that they don’t even know the general. .”
After introducing everyone, the host of the meeting said: “I am the vice chairman of the China Aerospace Association. You can call me Sen. This is my assistant. The chairman is out of town. It’s too late to come back. I saw your report today. To be on the safe side, I will ask you two about something.”
Raymond said: “There are no big ace and small ace? It seems that our treatment is not grand enough.”
Several adventurers laughed. Opal noticed a row of photos hung on the walls on both sides with names underneath. It is expected that he was the chairman of the Greater Astronautical Association.
“The big trump card has been missing for a long time.” The young adventurer, a distant relative of the Rotman family, joked: “but the little trump card is still in the association. To be honest, I don’t know who the little trump card is. I look forward to getting to know one day.”
“Don’t gossip.” Vice Chairman Sen said: “I’ll get off work right away, settle the matter early, and have time to go to Maple Leaf Street for a drink…Mr. Raymond, Mr. Opal.”
Opal turned his head to look at him, Sen took off his top hat and gave a salute, saying: “According to your application for membership, it is shown that the native place is Scorpio, Iszul, the holder of Xuanguang?”
“Yes.” Raymond said: “But it doesn’t mean…”
“I know, I don’t mean to listen to the privacy of the two.” Sen points on the screen to operate the buttons, scenes of reports fly by, and reverse in front of Opal and Raymond. They are all the details of the commission they submitted, and nothing is involved. Origin and information.
“Let’s put it this way.” The man wearing the K of spades brooch said: “Not long ago, you completed a scalability commission issued by the director of Green Mercury Star Bengbeng, and brought back the exact news beautifully. This information is very valuable.”
Another high-level adventurer said to the person sitting next to him: “I gave this expandability commission to Director Bengbeng. At first I didn’t expect anyone to notice it. It can be seen that the green Mercury people see people. Abilities…”
Raymond said: “Let’s get to the topic, do you need us to explain the details of the commission and complete the information?”
“No.” Sen shook his head and said: “This is a top-secret information. Only the chairman and vice-chairmen are qualified to read it. What I want to say is another incident that happened during the delegation… The two are Iraqi We have long heard of the Szuer, the name of His Majesty Kolorin. The Grip of Light is the core planet of the members of the Dark Alliance, and in the interstellar world, his country has long been called the “Meteor Empire” by default, although the Lion Star Empire Not to admit it, but I think this country actually exists.”
Opal nodded, and said, “But our identity does not represent Cololin…”
“Of course.” Sen emphasized: “The Great Astronautical Association is different from the country of mercenaries. What Liexing instilled in the mercenaries is that the mercenary is a united whole, and the Greater Astronautical Association respects the independent status of each member. In the association, you can choose to represent yourself. As an independent adventurer, I think this spirit is very important.”
Opal is always a little confused, I don’t know what Sen’s original intention is.
“So this involves another problem… the coronation ceremony mentioned in the Church of the Arc of Light.” Sen said: “According to the news from General Rotman and the Lion Empire Intelligence Department, it seems that it was from Opal. Mr. Come to crown the new pope?”
Opal finally understood what Sen meant.
“Yes.” Opal said: “As an adventurer.”
The participants fell into a long silence.
“This is completely feasible.” The adventurer wearing the K of Heart Medal smiled and said: “Sen, I think the people in the Empire are just making trouble, forgive me for having to go, and made an appointment with a beautiful woman for the night.”
The Heart of Hearts K took the lead to leave the seat. Sen seemed to be embarrassed. Opal said: “As a member of the Association of Large Astronautics, I want to be a friend of Glebni according to the Association’s constitution, and at the same time follow the interpretation of this part of the ceremony in the Stellar Canon. , I am fully qualified to crown him.”
“Anyone is eligible.” Ares Rotman smiled: “As long as the pope wants to, but your identity is a bit special. You are an Iszul and belong to King’s Wharf, so the purpose of this meeting is …”
Sen interrupted Ares’s words and said: “This is the first time an adventurer crowned the pope. I read the information. In fact, based on the situation at the time, only you can do it, so let’s do it. .”
Raymond said: “Is there any problem?”
Mori glanced at the two of them, and the king of spades said solemnly: “Komori, you can’t hand them over, otherwise the China Aerospace Association will completely lose the spirit of independence. In the past 100 years, we have made enough concessions. Many. Including the alliance with the Fierce Star, and to be honest, the group of rude bunnies are still very unfriendly until now…”
“That’s a headache for the imperial royal family.” Meihua J smiled gleefully: “It’s okay to let Yinni have a headache for a while.”
Opal said: “What? Who will be handed over?”
“Take you guys.” Ares said.
Sen glanced at Ares reproachfully, and the adventurers all laughed.
Raymond’s expression showed a trace of alertness. The Q of Hearts Van Cervantes had never spoken, but at this moment he said: “Don’t worry, friends, the chairman personally ordered that you must not give the two to Alec. S.”
Opal said: “What happened?”
Sen said: “Please keep the rest of the content confidential for us. The Rotman family thinks that your identity is special and represents…”
He seemed to be thinking about the wording, and finally adopted an eclectic title: “…represents His Excellency Colonel, the marshal of the Meteorite Legion. He believes that the Association of Aerospace Industries has a stance toward the Meteorite Legion and undermined the Holy See in this matter. The tripartite relationship between the Empire and the Meteorite Legion requires us to send the two to Lion and hand them over to the Imperial Military Court for trial.”
Opal said: “Although I am from Iszul, I spent a considerable part of my time in the Holy See as a special envoy for the Grip of Light, but when I was crowned, I was indeed an adventurer, wearing Gleibini. His crown.”
“That’s it.” Sen replied: “Every member of the Greater Astronautical Association comes from all over the stars. We recognize the multiple identities of each adventurer. When you wear the medal of color, you are a member of the adventurer. , So it was decided to pass.”
Raymond said: “What will happen if we harbor our two imperial criminals?”
“That’s not something you should worry about.” Sen smiled politely: “The chairman will solve it.”
Opal said: “Will it cause conflict?”
“Ah.” Meihua J said: “I think so, but the long-running conflict between the China Aerospace Association and the high-level empire is not bad, plus this straw.”
Another person said to him: “Maybe it is the last straw that crushes the camel.”
Ares said: “I think asking to surrender them is just an excuse. Marshal Rotman’s real intention is to annex the entire Aerospace Association and treat us as his private intelligence department…”
Opal said: “The worst case is…”
Sen said: “The worst-case scenario is that the army will come and arrest people, so you’d better stay in the association. I don’t mind making things happen so that Rotman can’t get off the stage.”
“Let’s leave here.” Raymond said: “Or after a while, wait until the storm subsides and then come back.”
“Don’t!” Ares said immediately: “Don’t, the chairman also intends to use this matter as an excuse to negotiate with the empire’s high-level leaders to suspend their next cooperation plan with Liexing…”
“Aris.” Sen said: “You talked too much today, and I now regret letting you come to the meeting.”
The adventurers laughed together, and Sen said relaxedly: “The meeting is over.”
“Right, by the way.” Ares followed Raymond and Opal downstairs and said, “I heard that your brigade is called the Star Knight Adventure Brigade? This name doesn’t sound too simple, you both are Star knight?”
Opal’s heart shuddered, and Raymond smiled: “No, we just admire the Star Knights.”
Ares nodded and smiled: “I have also heard the legend of the Star Knight for a while. In fact, I admire Horius, who was once the Star Knight.”
Opal thought that these adventurers were like S-class mercenaries on the Lie Star, with an intelligence network spreading in all directions. It is estimated that they have some family background, and they have been investigated clearly. Then he didn’t circumvent him and said, “My teacher also admires Horius very much.”
“And Nolan, the prince of the magic star.” Ares said: “He left too many threads of unsolvable cosmic mysteries, waiting for us humans to discover. Not long ago I also found information about the tomb of Horius. A clue…”
Opal moved his eyebrows and said, “Isn’t he buried in King’s Wharf?”
Ares pointed to the underground and said: “It’s in the underground of the Association of Large Astronautics, but in fact, no one knows where it is. It happened more than 10,000 years ago…”
The three of them walked out of the Da Astronautical Association at night, and the entrusted pavilion of Area C on the side was opened at night, and the main venue closed the door to send away the last wave of adventurers.
“Go to Maple Leaf Street for a drink?” Ares said: “I invite you…”
“Opal.” Reckett’s voice sounded from the corner outside the association.
“Teacher!” Opal said.
Raymond immediately said: “Teacher, are you back?”
Reckett held his arms, leaned against the wall, looked tired, and nodded.
Upon seeing this, Ares bid farewell to the three of them, and went to the levitation vehicle. Reckett, who had not been in contact for a long time, returned. Opal knew that he must have something to say and found something. Raymond went to take Reckett’s. Shoulder, said: “It’s been a long time since you sent us a newsletter.”
“You have grown taller.” Reckett smiled and said to Opal: “Find a quiet place to talk, I found something very important. I need your help.”
